skinnymixer’s Aussie Meat Pie Filling

Meat pies are one of my favourite cheeky foods, I have very fond memories of getting a meat pie with my Dad after watching the races as a child.Unfortunately, the pastry doesn’t like me – but this is a great way to get the taste of a perfect Thermomix Australian Meat Pie without the pastry – or with if you like 😉 Here in South Australia we have a tradition of enjoying a Meat Pie Floater, which is a pie served floating in pea soup – top a pie this Australia Day with my Mushy Peas for a reverse pie floater and celebrate this great country!

I’m wanting to try this recipe, sounds simple yet effective! I am only cooking for 2 so I was wondering if anyone had ‘converted’ the recipe 500g of mince? As someone else said, my local supermarket only sells in 500g sizes and i don’t want alot of left overs (small freezer). Also, for those that have made it into a Sheppard’s Pie, do you just mash the potato put on top and then put into the oven? Thanks.

I love this recipe but found the ingredient that it was missing was worcestershire sauce. Love that it’s simple though and I think that’s why there are a minimum ingredients in this one. And you have to have those mushy peas on the side! Yummy.

Ok so, I used turkey mince instead of beef, veggie stock instead beef stock, garlic instead of onions (I know, why did I even bother trying this?) and the worst part about it was I only had 500gms of mince… Delicious, wish there had been more of it!!!! So simple and I had with the mushy peas and some sweet potato mash, winner dinner!! Definitely plan on making this in bulk and freezing this as a meal for when baby 2 is due!

I love a good meat pie, but am quite put off thinking about what the filling is made up of , ie the cuts of meat or the quality of the mince. It was so good to sit down to a meat pie, full of flavour and just tasty and yummy and know exactly what was in the filling. I made pies using puff pastry in an electric pie maker, served with mashed potato and peas.

Has anybody checked to see if this recipe will scale to 1kg of mince? Our supermarket sells mince in packs of 500gm so 700gms is just the wrong size (I guess unless I buy 3 packs and divide into 2 lots!).

This recipe is amazing.
So simple i can put it together in the ad breaks of a tv show yet so yummy it will definitely become a regular.
Thank you so much for creating this recipe. Nicest mince pie filling recipe ive made yet!!
